Product Summary

High precision gear shaft is a high precision shaft which is used to install gears. Many of the more common gears will have a hole in the center, known as a bore, through which the gear shaft is fitted. When the gear shaft is rotated, the gear also rotates. Essentially, the gear shaft is the axle of the gear, providing the rotation that allows one gear to engage with and turn another. The process is often known as gear reduction and is essential to transferring horsepower from engine to drive mechanism. The conversion of engine speed into torque is what provides the driving force powering.
Gear shafts may, as well, contain gear teeth integrated into the shaft, thus becoming a shaft gear. Such gear shafts with gearing at each end are called intersecting shaft gears. Bevel gears and spiral gears are intersecting shaft gears. A good example of this type of gearing is a helicopter rotor. A vertical intersecting shaft gear from the engine engages one or more horizontal shaft gears to turn the rotors.
Some different types of gear shafts are eccentric shafts, coupling-gear shafts, splined shafts, and keyed shafts. Gear shafts used in a heavy duty application will most likely be manufactured of a sturdy metal. Other materials used to manufacture gear shafts are copper aluminum and plastic. The original gear shaft, commonly found with the medieval grinding wheel, was made of wood.
